The global automotive window regulator market is expected to exceed USD 21.2 billion by 2031, demonstrating a consistent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5% throughout the forecast period.
This growth is largely attributed to the rising adoption of advanced automated features by automobile manufacturers, underscoring significant progress in vehicle automation. A key trend driving this expansion is the transition from manual to automated window regulators, reflecting the broader evolution and technological advancements within the automotive industry.
Asia Pacific Excluding Japan (APEJ) to Lead the Market
The Asia Pacific Excluding Japan (APEJ) region is expected to remain the largest market for automotive window regulators in terms of volume, with a projected CAGR of 4.4% during the forecast period. In 2017, the APEJ region recorded sales of 211,633 thousand units of automotive window regulators, a figure expected to exceed 300,000 thousand units by 2027.
Furthermore, the Middle East & Africa (MEA) region is anticipated to become the second-most lucrative market for automotive window regulators by the end of 2027, with a forecasted CAGR of 4.3% through 2027.
OEM to Remain the Preferred Sales Channel:
The original equipment manufacturer (OEM) channel is projected to be the dominant sales channel in terms of volume. By the end of 2027, global sales of automotive window regulators through OEMs are expected to approach 500,000 units. Both OEM and aftermarket sales channels are anticipated to expand at a similar rate, with a 3.3% CAGR during the forecast period.
Despite this growth, the aftermarket channel is expected to hold a smaller market share by 2027. This is largely due to the low breakdown and replacement rates of automotive window regulators, as well as consumer preference for maintaining the original equipment in their vehicles.
Passenger Cars to Exhibit Highest Demand for Automotive Window Regulators by 2027-end:
Adoption of automotive window regulator is expected to remain highest in passenger cars, based on vehicle type. Demand for automotive window regulator in passenger cars is expected to reach 530,539 thousand units by 2027-end. In contrast, HCVs are estimated to exhibit lowest demand for automated window regulator during the forecast period.
By construction, cable type automated window regulators will remain preferred in the market. In terms of volume, demand for double rail cable is projected to grow at 3.9% CAGR through 2027.
On the basis of product type, automated window regulators will remain dominant in the market, with their sales projected to exceed 500,000 thousand units by 2027-end. This is attributed to functionality and lightweight characteristics offered by automated window regulators.
In contrast, manual window regulators will witness a sluggish growth in sales during the forecast period. Frequent wear & tear off and complex structure of manual window regulators will impede their demand growth.
